Sandra Bullock and Billy Bob Thornton may not just be the coolest, most laid-back actors in Hollywood, but they also truly take #FriendshipGoals to a whole new level. Surprisingly enough, however, the actors have never once worked together in a movie — until now! (It's about damn time.) In their latest flick, Our Brand Is Crisis, produced by George Clooney and Sandra herself, a Bolivian presidential candidate failing in the polls enlists an elite American management team, led by the deeply damaged but brilliant strategist “Calamity” Jane Bodine (Bullock). Jane is coaxed back into the game for a chance to beat her professional nemesis, the loathsome Pat Candy (Thornton), now coaching the opposition. And trust me, her fight to win is AWESOME AS HELL.
Seeing as how Sandra and Billy Bob have been buds for over a decade, we had one question: How well do they really know each other? We obviously had to find out.
